The Old Dance School set for village hall gig
The Old Dance School have been marked out as one of the folk scene’s most exciting young prospects by critics since the band was formed by a group of university friends back in 2006.
Now they are preparing to play their forward-thinking brand of folk to an audience of around 70 at Letwell Village Hall on February 5.

The Old Dance School’s debut album, Based on a True Story, was praised as “an absolute gem” by Radio Two’s Bob Harris, and fellow BBC radio DJ Mark Harding commented: “It really hits the mark. There’s a genuine creative fizz to what the band do.”
One of the organisers of next Saturday’s gig, Martyn Sharpe, said: “The band come with some really good recommendations.
“I’ve been lucky enough to see them in concert already and they were fantastic. I know they'll go down a storm in Letwell.”
Tickets for the event, which opens its doors at 8pm, are £12 each and can be booked from Martyn on 01909 731626.
All profits go towards the upkeep of the village hall.
